[A couple more seconds pass by where Gene doesn't say anything, but he doesn't get up to leave, either, or grab his rifle, or go for his side arm or his KA-BAR. He just stares at Scott, weighing what he said with what he's seen, and finally he just... accepts it.
He's too worn out to do anything else. It's accept it, or go full on Asiatic, so he accepts it. Seems easier in the long run.]
Okay. [He relaxes a little again. Slowly, but it happens, and he lets Scott get to work on cleaning his feet up.]
